Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017157708A1] There are provided measures for conflict resolution in a network virtualization scenario, wherein a virtualized network function is utilized by a first virtualized network service managed by a first network component and a second virtualized network service managed by a second network component. The measures comprise requesting, by the first network component, an alteration of the virtualized network function, transmitting information indicative of the alteration of the virtualized network function to the second network component, and determining when the alteration of the virtualized network function impacts the second virtualized network service.
